Good idea to have a thread for each game...

Schedule, post, brag, gripe, etc here.

[SlowwHand]

Arii hasn't gotten the map, last I heard.

[cavebear]

I had some problems getting Arii's email address correct (an old one from his ICQ at first, then some really bad typing on my part afterwards). I think I sent it correctly yesterday afternoon. I hope that wvernier@sprintmail.com is correct. If not, someone let me know and I will try again. My apologies for the delay...

Just got back from a week end trip. This week I have already a game schedule for thursday and friday. But I should be able to play saturday during the day let me know if that works for you guys or if we should start thinking about next week.

[Berzerker]

Saturday afternoon/evening is fine with me. Should we all get a look at the map or keep it a secret? I prefer the latter...

[SlowwHand]

Late Saturday afternoon or evening. Same on Sunday.

[arii]

I have the map and of course will not look at it. Saturday afternoon is ok but I am not able to play in the evening ( I am free from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm ct).

[Zylka]

Muff diver

Working Saturday

[SlowwHand]

What about Saturday about 6 central? Later?

[arii]

Looks like sat is not going to work since zylka is not available. I can play any night next week after 8:00 ct as long as it is plan in advance.
Let's have everybody post their available time for next week and find a convinient time for everybody.

For myself:

Sunday-Friday: 8:00 pm ct - 12:00pm ct
I may have a game on friday but zylka and berz are also in that game

[Zylka]

I'm available Thursday and Friday next week, less the Eurodip at 5:00 pm pst Friday. I'd like to have a look at this map, and have random starting positions.

[Zylka]

There are a few more late night spots I'm available, the only one working with Arriis' schedule being Sunday night. Most of the week I can play for a few hours in/around 7:00 pm pst, if that's not too late for y'all.

Cheers

I don't agree with the looking at the map and randmizing starting location. Unless the 3 of you guys wants it. And still I think it's not the intent in this tourney. What's the point in playing a game when 1 has 3 whales and the other is at the pole.
Slowhands/berz when are you available next week?

[SlowwHand]

Zylka, you read the rules.
If you disagreed, or had input, you had much time to say so.
Wanting to look at the map is just this side of ignorant.
Just play the game.

I'm available late afternoon/evening during week, whenever on weekend.

What's the point of playing without randomized positions when only one player has full access to the map, whom has not yet gained my trust? I'm all for set positions and a covered map, if the host picks civ last.

Sloww... I worry about you buddy. You've become an irritable mess, waiting to snap at anyone who even makes a suggestion. Just play the game, and how you used to; smile

Cheers
